What Happens To You & Your Garden When You Move?Since relocating to a new area, my ability to plant my food garden has changed drastically.

I did not realize that the mental health aspects of gardening would have such a detrimental impact on my ability to feel motivated, happy and ready to tackle life. Gardening is truly my therapy. I am a nature person by nature and when I begin gardening 6 years ago, I felt like this was what I had been missing.Living in an apartment has surely presented me with a gardening challenge. Being the type of person that I am, I seem to think that "you can do anything if you put your mind to it"...lol!

Well, oops...this is embarassing...then why haven't I risen to the challenge yet? I have a sunroom, pots and seed to do it! What is it about the land, being in the sunlight, and taking in the great outdoors. Ahh, just thinking about it makes me smile!
